A lovely Australian native perennial daisy that forms a spreading evergreen mound of soft green foliage and has violet-blue flowers through the warmer months, peaking in spring and autumn. Great for mass planting, rockeries and containers. A very easy care plant, a light trim if it becomes untidy is all that is needed. Best flowering is in a sunny position, watering if the soil is dry for some time, fertilise in spring and early autumn. It is frost tolerant and will grow in sandy to clay loam soils. Grows around 15cm tall x 1m wide.
